<p>There used to be a young guy that wandered around Corvallis(Oregon) with a pyramid on his head, expecting to sharpen his wits I expect. Sadly we could never tell. One day the pyramid came off, then he was picked up for public nuttyness.</p>
<p>Another Corvallis regular, was a guy that nailed aluminum foil to telephone poles, with the expectation that he was doing a public service preventing people from hitting the poles with their cars. He seemed to be a street person. While driving around…</p>

<p>Another Corvallis regular, was a guy that nailed aluminum foil to telephone poles, with the expectation that he was doing a public service preventing people from hitting the poles with their cars. He seemed to be a street person. While driving around the area, all the way to Albany and Philomath, this fellow had foilized just about every pole within a 20 mile radius..LOL</p>

<p>About 1999, I was invited to an EST gathering in Seattle by a friend. It was a rather long trip from Salem, but about 3 hrs latter we showed up, and the 6 hrs of constant selling of an ideology began!</p>

<p>After I distingushed myself as a 'trouble maker', myself and a few of my fellow country-persons, were partitioned together in a small room to be love bombed into some simularity to a personal check. The more needly/commited EST sales people then opened their minds, and their hearts, to us, showing their limited degree of philosophical understanding, and expecting us to fall in line behind the rest of the sheeple. This rather short gathering seemed to end in frustration, just in time for a short lunch/break.</p>
<p>During the break, we newbys where again approached by EST sales people. Each one offering a new insight into the social structure. Finally near the end of the 6 hours, wondering around the EST play house, I was approached by one last dear fellow that just repeated the same pitch-reformated, with my comeback, 'bugger off, I think I have heard enough!'</p>
<p>While there I meet a rather charming gal that was attending as a Social Psychology observer. During our compairing of notes, we talked about intellectual freedom, sometimes we have to fight to keep it! </p> Wow, I'd never heard that Ste…tag:www.thinkatheist.com,2013-01-26:1982180:Comment:12520452013-01-26T11:37:18.005ZClaire Couchhttp://www.thinkatheist.com/profile/ClaireCouch

<p>Yes i found Jesus he was hiding from all you fan bois following him about and misquoting him.</p>
<p>No sorry I have not accepted him as my personal savior .I have been too busy practicing witchcraft and becoming a lesbian.</p>
<p>Yes I have found Jesus..he was in the drawer next to my cheque book.</p>
<p>And lastly theres an old guy who lives around here who when off his meds is basically harmless but thinks he is god and created the world and will go around blessing things and telling people they should smile. Harmless and nice and most of the regulars around know to call and have him picked up so he does not wander too far. His name is Dave Had those guys come to my door and I decided to let them know..Yes..I do know god..his name is Dave Would they like to come in and join us? There was plenty of black candles and goats blood to go around. They got nervous and left and I called out"Dave be with you!" I never had anyone banging on the door first thing in the morning after that..I wonder if they warn each other away from certain houses somehow?</p>
